I had a great first Christmas. It was even a white Christmas! Mommy said that was a first for her, too.Here's an outline of my Christmas Eve/Day festivities:

After my morning nap on Christmas Eve, we headed over to Grandma and Grandpa's house to see Uncle Brian, Aunt Becky, and Micah! We were so excited to spend Christmas with them this year.Micah and I played for a while, and then it was time to go to Mimi and Poppy's house to open Pierce presents. Daddy posed for this JC Penney catalogue photo while we were there.After presents, we enjoyed watching the beautiful snow fall to the ground.The Moss clan joined us in the evening for dinner. This was the first time all of my lovies were together in one place! It was great.As you can see, we take family time very seriously!Micah and I had a blast playing in Mimi and Poppy's sleigh. He is such a cutie!Mommy, Daddy, and I had to leave the festivities early so that I could get a good night's sleep. When I woke up on Christmas morning, it was time to open my presents from Mommy and Daddy! I love this baby doll they gave me.Once those presents were opened and we were all dressed, the three of us headed back over to Grandma and Grandpa's for Moss presents. I was so excited to be at Grandma and Grandpa's house!Micah likes to look out the window, too! We enjoyed eyeing the snow and throwing down some tight beats on G'ma and G'Pa's door.Then, it was back to Mimi and Poppy's where our cousins joined us to open stockings and some more presents.Going up and down the stairs is my new favorite thing to do at Mimi and Poppy's house. I can climb all the way up without any help!On Christmas night, our Moss family came over to our house to open stockings and play with the Wii Grandpa bought as a family gift...but we didn't get any pictures :(

That pretty much wraps up my first Christmas. I can't wait to do it all over again in 364 days!
